I have to thank all you parents for the great support for a wonderful play Friday night.  All the kids did such a good job!  There was no homework except reading over the weekend.

This morning we located and labeled the Wasatch Range.  We also had two visitors for next year.  They were well accepted and fit in immediately.  They stayed until lunch.  IF YOU HAVE ANY NEIGHBORS OR FRIENDS WHO WOULD LIKE TO VISIT MERIDIAN TO SEE IF THEY WOULD LIKE COME, PLEASE CONTACT ANNETTE WARNICK.  WE WOULD BE HAPPY TO HAVE THEM COME.

After SAT words, grammar, and reading, we worked on spelling.  The multiple intelligence for the week is kinesthetic/body.  Students are creating a movement for each word and spelling the words as fast as they can to the movement.  They are becoming very independent and responsible.

The SAT words follow:

1. foster
   providing or receiving nurture or parental care though not related by blood or legal ties
2. fraught
   filled with or attended with
3. frugal
   avoiding waste
4. hackneyed
   repeated too often; overfamiliar through overuse
5. haughty
   having or showing arrogant superiority to and disdain of those one views as unworthy
    
    
   MATH HOMEWORK IS  TO START THE REVIEW.  We will continue with it tomorrow and play decimal games the next day, before we take the test.
